This is a different vitrine de noël display with its elegant lines and exquisite miniatures. I do wish I knew something about this detailed model found in the window of a Rue de Grenelle bookstore in the 7ième arr.
I love how the glass bubbles delicately frame the scene
Certainly very unique! It's quite charming though isn't it. I like those bubbles too. Or are they baubles?
ReplyDeleteThis is a crib, typical from the countries or eastern Europe, I'd say it comes from Poland.English people make xmas villages, in Provence we make the "crèche" with "santons", that's what they make in those countries.
ReplyDeleteJoyeuse fête de Noël, Genie! And all the best to you.
ReplyDeleteLove, Marjolijn
This is soooo magical, a little world...I wish I could go there, walk inside that fantastic house, look out through the windows, sit by a fireplace, hear someone play the piano in a distant room...
ReplyDeleteWishing you a warm and happy christmas dear Genie, I´m so happy to have found you!
Wow! That is exquisite. And intricate. It probably took forever to make!
ReplyDeleteJoyeaux Noel, Genie!
Perhaps some lucky little girl will find this under the tree on Christmas morming! HA I just love all the fabulous windows you've brought us Genie!
